Text Box: 3rd Workshop on Internet of Things
Aim
The Internet of Things (IoT) has become a strong trend in the technological advancement driving innovation in both traditional and nontraditional applications.
As the latest Gartner, Inc. forecasts show, more than 20 billion things will be connected and in use worldwide in 2020, indicating that aside their use in automotive systems, the most used by consumers will be those used for healthcare, home automation and home security, while businesses will use for applications in smart metering, manufacturing, process monitoring, smart cities and smart buildings. The last year shows that IoT has an increasing impact not only on the consumers’ lives, but also on industry by reducing production costs, shaping new business models and increasing the number of IT-centric processes.
The main driver of Internet of Things is based on the large palette of services which connect things – from simpler sensors and actuators to most complex equipment – to IT systems allowing data acquisition, communication, processing and mining at a level it was unpractical until now and with results that could not been foreseen a few years ago. Early adopters of the technology are starting to see payback from their efforts to implement and deploy IoT based systems.
This workshop aims to identify the latest tendencies guiding IoT development and implementation in applications covering many different areas such as energy, healthcare, transportation, automotive, industry and agriculture.
The workshop is intended to fostering the discussion on IoT related issues, in particular focusing on technical enablers for the IoTs, such as practical architectures, software and hardware, with a strong emphasis on showcases and demonstrations of real use cases.
 
Call for Papers
The submission of scientific papers is fully supported.
